Kondinin Lake Fishing Guide, Kondinin, Western Australia

• Overview

  Kondinin Lake falls in Kondinin, part of Western Australia. It lies 260 metres above sea level. It covers about 13.97 sq km, which means weather matters as much as tactics. With 18 km or so of shoreline, boat anglers cover ground the bank cannot. The town to know is Narrogin, 109 km out. Merredin lies 112 km off, Wagin another 122 km. Close neighbours run: 24 km out stands Jilakin Lake Kurrenkutten at 28 km and 56 km out stands Lake Yealering. It lies deep inside the county rather than near an edge.

• Where to Fish on Kondinin Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. The near bank of Kondinin Lake is often the one people ignore. Fish tight to whatever breaks the bottom's flatness.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect January near 24°C and July near 11°C on the long-run figures. Winter is simply the pleasant end of an unbroken season. The shoulder seasons either side of summer are the ones to aim for. April and May steady things again after the summer heat. It sets the rhythm of the year at Kondinin Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. Part of this sits inside or beside Kondinin Lake Nature Reserve, so read the notices. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Failing this one, try Jilakin Lake, 24 km away. For Kondinin Lake, the notice at the access point is the final word.
